In 1704, Blenheim architect John Vanbrugh set out to create something spectacular across what was then just a marshy brook. The Grand Bridge was the outcome, containing no less than 30 rooms. In 1764, 'Capability' Brown set about improving and landscaping the grounds. His most notable work was the creation of Blenheim's Lake, which submerged the lower stories of the bridge.

The Oxfordshire village of Combe is wonderfully located for some fantastic walks. Nestled in the Evenlode Valley, there are tranquil riverside and woodland trails to the south and west of the village. To the east are the magnificent grounds of Blenheim Park, with its large lakes and superb oak woodland. In the village, the Cock Inn serves good pub grub at reasonable prices and there are a few guesthouses to choose from. St Laurence Church is a Grade II-listed building and dates from the 12th century.

Woodstock is derived from old English, meaning a clearing in the trees. This is because Woodstock used to be part of the Royal Forest of Wychwood, most of which has since disappeared, cut down for industry and replaced by farmland. The market town today is a good base for exploring the gently rolling limestone uplands of northern Oxfordshire. Blenheim Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its wonderful grounds are set to the south and west of the town.

Bladon Bridge as we call it today was originally referred to as 'New Bridge' and built by Sir William Chambers in 1772. It was named 'New Bridge' to distinguish it from Vanbrugh's Grand Bridge and replaced an earlier structure.
